In the second part of our discussion on Palestine we look at the events of The Al-Aqsa Flood, October 07 2023, as well as the surrounding media environment, the hostage situation that has ensued, and some key figures involved in the promotion and enablement of the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.
We will be discussing Israel's war crimes and taking an initial look at the widening war in Part 3, coming soon.

We will be discussing The Al-Aqsa Flood in Part 2, coming out on 19th January 2024.

In the first half of our discussion on the global climate crisis, we discuss the difficult reality we find ourselves in: quickly passing milestones, after which there's no turning back. We look at some of the past decades, discuss key facts and statistics about our rainforests and oceans, laugh at some reactionary discourse, and do our best to grapple with the scale of what this means for our species.
